Roller shutters and windows go together like sunshine and summer. Whether you're looking for a sun shading system, want to save energy or need effective protection against uninvited intruders. WAREMA roller shutters don't just offer the best visual privacy, glare control and light protection. They also improve the energy efficiency of your property and thus sustainably increase its value.

Whether for a new building or renovation – we have the perfect roller shutter solution for every installation situation.

Top-mounted roller shutters from WAREMA are used in new buildings or renovation projects. Unlike front-mounted roller shutters, the roller shutter box is mounted directly on top of the window element. As a result, roller shutters and windows can be efficiently installed in a single step.

WAREMA front-mounted roller shutters are an excellent choice for retrofits. They are often used as part of renovations and refurbishment projects. They can either be integrated 'invisibly' in the facade or utilised as an optical facade highlight.

An increasing number of building facades are incorporating sloped glazing. These types of windows require special sun shading concepts. These are WAREMA asymmetrical roller shutters: the perfect solution for modern windows with a slope of 10 to 45 degrees.

Shaft roller shutters from WAREMA offer impressive functionality, contemporary design and superior quality. The are easily installed in new buildings and renovations. All you have to do is use an existing shaft.

Windows and doors are among the most sensitive parts of a house, whether it is a matter of security or energy efficiency. With a roller shutter on the window or patio door, you not only control the incoming daylight and thus change the desired atmosphere in your rooms. You also directly influence the temperature inside. In summer, you keep the heat outside when the roller shutter is closed and save costs for fans or air conditioners. In winter, on the other hand, you are happy about the sun's rays coming in, as the heating can be reduced or, ideally, not used at all. With the WAREMA security package for front-mounted roller shutters, we offer you additional protection and increased burglar resistance.

A roller shutter from WAREMA gives your design concepts free rein and amazes with technical perfection and innovative ideas. Do you want to protect your home against the sun while increasing your living comfort and safety at the same time? Then we recommend our roller shutter solutions. They deliver effective visual privacy and sun shading, reliable noise protection, and optimal thermal protection. Come and see for yourself!

You want to lower your roller shutter in the evening - but it doesn't work. Even if you get high-quality sun protection with a roller shutter from WAREMA, it is still possible that it will break down one day. The effects of the weather, storms and precipitation do not pass your roller shutter by without leaving a trace. If one of your roller shutters is defective, you should not do it yourself, but rather consult a professional. In the worst case, inexperienced hands can make the problem even worse. It is best to contact a specialist dealer in your area for repairs. He will provide you with active support and supply you with original WAREMA spare parts.

Safety at the expense of style? Not with the integrated fall protection VisioNeo from WAREMA. This reliable and almost invisible fall protection is a stylish solution that replaces bars and railings on floor-to-ceiling windows. The certified fall protection combines safety with an optimal view out. The slender glass pane integrates harmoniously into every facade, enhances it optically and protects the inhabitants from falling out a window.

A roller shutter is an external sun shading system fitted to a window or patio door. This sun shading system offers effective privacy, heat protection and glare control.

A roller shutter consists of the following components:

  • Roller shutter curtain: this consists of several aluminium or plastic profiles which can be lowered in front of a window.
  • Guide rails: responsible for guiding the roller curtain and preventing it from sustaining damage by being pressed inwards and outwards by the wind.
  • Box: the box protects the rolled-up roller shutter curtain from wind and weather. It also adds a fitting design element to the facade.
  • Shaft: the shaft is used to wind the roller shutter curtain.
  • Drive element: motor, crank or belt that can be used to open and close your roller shutter.

Both types of roller shutter are suitable for renovation and new build projects. The difference lies in the installation of the box. For top-mounted roller shutters , the box is fixed to the window from the top and mounted together with the window. However, front-mounted roller shutters can either be fitted with an 'invisible' box integrated into the facade or a visible box installed as a design highlight on the facade, available in all RAL CLASSIC colours.

Because WAREMA roller shutters are high-quality products, which are always made to measure according to customer wishes, they are only available to purchase from sun shading specialist dealers and not in hardware stores or online. Contact your local specialised retailer to receive a free and non-binding consultation in person or over the phone.

As roller shutters are high-quality products, which are always made to measure according to customer wishes, prices are highly individual. Contact your local specialised retailer to receive a free and non-binding consultation in person or over the phone.

Damage caused by hail or other bad weather constitutes damage by the elements to your house and is generally covered by your household contents insurance. An appraiser is usually consulted, normally provided by the insurance company. To be safe, enquire with your insurance company about whether elemental damage insurance is necessary for you.

If your roller shutters sustain damage due to hail, act immediately by taking photos to document the damage. Videos are also useful. Report the damage to your insurer without delay. Make sure to specify the location, date and time at which the hail occurred. If possible, mention a witness, perhaps a neighbour. It can also be a good idea to create a list of damaged objects to provide the insurer with an overview. The corresponding objects should be kept safe until the claim has been processed.

Your insurer will let you know the next steps to take. Don't take any action without their approval. For example, if you decide to repair the shutters before clearing matters, your insurer won't cover the costs.

Roller shutters with motor drives offer extremely convenient operation together with a smart control system . Additional belt operation can be fitted for emergency situations, which works independently of the power supply. A lowered curtain can be raised to the upper limit position in a matter of seconds by manual pulling on the additional belt. A lowered roller shutter will thus no longer block the way outside in case of a power failure.

The main difference between rollers shutters and roller blinds is where they are attached. Roller shutters are external sun shading systems , whereas roller blinds are fitted inside. The materials also vary significantly. Roller shutters are made from aluminium or plastic, whereas roller blinds are made from fabric.

When there's a problem with one of your roller shutters, you should always call a qualified specialist instead of attempting to repair it yourself. In the worst case scenario, an unpracticed hand can make the problem worse. For repairs , it's best to turn to a local specialised retailer. Your retailer is ready to provide helpful assistance.

Exclusive use of original spare parts is essential for trouble-free operation and a long product service life. Spare parts for roller shutters can be purchased from your local sun shading system specialised retailer. There you will find every kind of accessory required for roller shutter units, whether for repairs, installation or maintenance.

Roller shutters are true all-rounders. Their wide range of functions prevent heat from escaping your house in winter while saving the amount of power required for cooling with effective sun and heat protection in the summer months, allowing you to improve the energy efficiency of your building. Other useful benefits to roller shutters include visual privacy, dim-out and glare control, weather protection, security and noise protection. Roller shutters are also a striking design feature for your home's facade.

Make sure to close your windows during bad weather like storms. Eliminate air drafts. The Federal Office of Civil Protection and Disaster Assistance also recommends fully closing roller shutters in the case of bad weather. They must not be partially opened under any circumstances. Otherwise, they may sustain damage due to wind reaching between the roller shutter curtain and the window, ripping the roller shutters from their guide rail.

When using a control unit without an ice alarm, automatic operation should be deactivated in icy conditions. If snow, rain or ice falls onto your roller shutters, they may freeze up in low temperatures. You should not operate the roller shutters while iced over. The roller shutters must be cleared of ice and snow before they can be used.

Roller shutters should not be fully closed at temperatures over 30 degrees. As a bare minimum, the light and ventilation slots should be kept open to ensure ventilation. It will also reduce the risk of deformation if plastic roller shutter curtains are being used.

There are various types of roller shutters available designed to suit different locations of use and requirements. These include:

  • Top-mounted roller shutters for new buildings: mounted on and installed in combination with the window. They are suitable for new buildings and renovations and are fully embedded in plaster both in interior spaces and outside. In addition to this, they also offer great sound insulation and strong heat insulation.
  • Top-mounted roller shutters: also mounted on and in combination with the window. The top-mounted box is made from plastic and generally fitted with visible cover panels on the inside and out.
  • Front-mounted roller shutters: can be integrated with almost every facade with a visible box on the facade or a box embedded in plaster regardless of the building design
  • Asymmetrical roller shutters: the perfect solution for architecturally demanding window shapes
  • Shaft roller shutters: perfect for on-site installation in pre-existing boxes/shafts
  • Renovation roller shutters: ideal for pre-existing lintel boxes

The range of products offered by manufacturers like WAREMA may vary subject to country-specific structural conditions and regulations.

In order to ensure the highest level of quality, roller shutters need to be made to measure. Ask your specialised retailer to receive more information.

Benefits of aluminium roller shutters:

Thanks to their top stability and high quality, aluminium roller shutter curtains are ideal for large windows. Aluminium gives the roller shutters a long product life and great winding behaviour. In addition, it's weather-proof with colourfast and form resistant properties despite high solar radiation. You can also select the perfect colour for your aluminium roller shutters from a wide range of eye-catching colours.

Benefits of plastic roller shutters:

Plastic roller shutters are the more cost-effective variant and the perfect solution for small windows. Plastic isn't suitable for large windows due to a lack of stability. In addition, slats made from PVC offer great heat insulation, helping you save energy.

You can save energy by using your roller shutter as intended. When lowered and closed in the summer months, roller shutters offer an extra layer of thermal resistance. The sun's rays aren't able to make it inside, reducing the amount of energy required to cool the room.

During the winter months, you can also prevent heat from escaping by keeping your roller shutters closed. The pleasant side effect of this is that the window panes do not ice over on the outside and less condensation forms on the inside. To allow sunray energy to stream into the room unhindered on sunny winter days, the sun shading system should only be activated once the sun has gone down.

Needless to say, roller shutters also offer glare control and visual privacy, and can be moved into the position you require.

Roller shutters and external venetian blinds are both external sun shading systems. This means they are installed outside in front of the window and have numerous advantageous features.

External venetian blinds are particularly well suited to living and work rooms as they permit daylight guidance to be adjusted as required. On the other hand, roller shutters have a reliable black-out effect, making them ideal for bedrooms and rooms that require privacy. These robust and durable systems also provide noise protection.

The box is the housing that protects the inner workings of the roller shutter, including the fabric shaft, the motor and the wound-up roller shutter curtain. Depending on the roller shutter type, the box will either be integrated in the facade or installed on the outside of the facade.

Solar roller shutters are powered by a solar motor. The solar energy gained is stored in a storage battery and acts as an environmentally friendly drive for roller shutters. With its own energy supply, the shutter is independent from the power grid, allowing you to save energy costs. Installation also couldn't be easier. Retrofitting does not require any electrical connection work, wall openings or complex line routing. Usually this optional extra is available for front-mounted roller shutters, whereby the required solar panel can be directly installed on the box.

You should hire a specialist fitting company qualified to install roller shutters. Window manufacturers or sun shading system specialised retailers are another alternative.

The window manufacturer or sun shading specialised retailer usually take care of installing roller shutters and shutter boxes.

Your roller shutter has to put up with wind and weather every single day. In the course of this, it can become soiled over time. Strong solar radiation can bake soiling into the roller curtain. Dust and dirt can also damage the roller shutter mechanism. That's why you should clean your roller shutter on a regular basis, at least once each year.

The following tools are required for cleaning:

  • Whisk broom (soft bristles)
  • Vacuum cleaner (optional)
  • Bucket
  • Low-calcium water (recommendation)
  • Cleaning concentrate suitable for metal and plastic surfaces
  • Damp cloth/cleaning glove
  • Cotton cloth

Products should be cleaned gradually from top to bottom: start with the guide rails, move down to the curtain and then to the end rail.

Products should be cleaned gradually from top to bottom: start with the guide rails, move down to the curtain and then to the end rail.

Start with preliminary cleaning:

  • Remove any loose soiling from the entire product (e.g. dust). A whisk broom or vacuum cleaner can be used for this.
  • If the product is installed outside, you can also rinse off loose dirt with clear water at a low water pressure.
  • Before you start, remove any objects that must not get wet.

Then you can start with the heavy-duty cleaning.

  • Prepare a bucket with water and cleaning agent for sun shading products. Note the dosing quantities specified by the cleaning agent manufacturer.
  • Wet the cleaning glove.
  • Clean the product components with a wiping motion. Repeat the procedure as needed based on the degree of soiling.
  • Remove the detached soiling before drying.
